iOS 10.3 Beta 1

[scjr]

Thanks, that's done the trick!!

You're welcome!

Developers only. Sorry, man.

Damn & blast.

Hopefully within a few days or beta 2 it'll be available for public testers too.

Cheers for replying.

Seems that when you hit the 'download all' button in the App Store app, the downloads will not start all at once but start after each other. Looks nicer.

Does it fix the Bluetooth stuttering issues on ATT iPhone 7's?

Has the iPad Air2 Orientation Bug been fixed?

I'd like to know this.

I found this on Twitter, very interesting...

Interesting. Other than a calendar app, I don't think there are many apps that would need to change the icon.

Is this beta just for developers at the moment , or public beta testers too ?

Tomorrow for public beta testers. Hopefully.

FINALLY! They fixed the stutters while swyping in some games. The issue was here since iOS 10.0.0 - but still not perfect, I expect the full fix for 10.3 release. Thanks Apple!

can't make a capture or GIF now but basically all four corners of the app you're launching start as curved and quickly animate/morph into full screen. (hard to explain).

Like this , ss from vid

Tomorrow for public beta testers. Hopefully.

It could possibly be as early as 4pm ET today. However, I doubt it with the change to the file system. I suspect a public beta could be a week or so away until they determine that a file system change isn't going to brick lots of phones.

Field test mode on intel iPhone 7 !

Any chance for a screenshot?!

scroll back, many have replied no

how do you miss the project deadline by 2 weeks, and still not have it ready?

Project deadline? Um not sure Apple announced any such item.

Well, I'm confused as where the Jan 10 came from, why that date?

Rumor

Exactly.... that's why it's a worthless update to me. Huuuuge disappointment IF that's the biggest new feature.

APFS would be the biggest. An x.x updat that totally changes the file system is pretty big I would think. Plus there were other things mentioned as well.

Whats the point of the Apple File System? What does that mean going forward.

Here is a quick blurb you can read and if you have some time you can watch the Apple developer video (at least part of it) to get a better idea.

I've read field test works on the iPhone 7 now and has a new UI.

Folder opening/closing animation is a lot slower.

This is making me not want to update. I have the update downloaded but haven't installed yet. Kind of hesitant.

I think they finally fixed the scrolling and animation jerkiness on the iPhone 7 series with this update. Tweetbot no longer stutters like crazy when scrolling with this beta.

I think its not only iPhone 7. Since iOS 10.0.0, for me Clash of Clans and Clash Royale stuttered so bad while swiping and scrolling, but when I released my finger it was back to smooth. This version fixed that.

Tomorrow for public beta testers. Hopefully.

I would bet it will wait until beta 2 or 3 before public due to the file system change.

On that note, anyone know if that can be downgraded to 10.2.1 since the file system is being updated to APFS? I would suspect DFU would be required at minimum but curious if even its possible at all.

I don't notice any major difference in speed when opening folders. But if there was, it more than makes up for it with how smooth and speedy everything else is.

I can't believe this has to be said again, but I doubt we're going to see Dark Mode anytime soon.My money is iOS 11 on iPhone 8 only because of OLED.

 

[mous94410]

i have a big problem with the speed and my battery life with an iPhone 6s Plus...

 

[DMod]

Where can I read more about this?

Here's a long going discussion about it. Many of us with the AT&T version of the phone have been fighting with this for months.

It's worth the update. The folder opening seems more smooth and possibly slower, but not enough to make a HUGE difference. It more than makes up for it in animations across the rest of the system.

I don't know if this has been mentioned already, but there is now haptic feedback when activating a live photo! Its a subtle but nice addition!
